Really depends on how cheap that they got or made the bodies for...
Last year I picked up two rough pine bodies for $19 a piece. I also picked up two tele necks for $50. Go figure!
Sometimes there are deals to be found. I imagine not counting time and effort when all is said and done I will have two pine barncasters for less than $300

Just in case it's not clear at this point...hot guitar HORRIBLE pickguard. Priced so nice that one could feel goo about buying it and just swapping the guard...for anything really.

True Scott- but you're not trying to make a living of it.
Trust me. I get wholesale on my parts and pickups and I couldn't even put together a parts caster with good quality parts for under 400 bucks (not even including a case) just in materials and parts.
The cheapest guitar I make is 2000 dollars for a reason.

I thought the reason your cheapest guitar was $2000 was because you make kick ass guitars?

What?
I'd like it a lot more if the pickguard was copper with a nice patina. The price makes me think it's a piece of shit, though.

It is! It's also because I use only the best stuff too.

make a living no... but I have built quite a few on the cheap like this one for $350
And this one for $500
I only build about 6 a year and usually sell 4 of the 6 but good stuff can be done on a budget
Now then... That being said I do not usually account for labor because well... I really do not want to know if I have 40 hours into a body or 100 hours into a neck.
